Throne of Vientiane Civilization

Chapter 171 Rattan Armor

As soon as he thought of it, Zhou Xu spread out a piece of animal skin paper, picked up a chicken brush made of pheasant feathers, and began to draw the shape of coins.

To put it bluntly, it is a copper coin with a circle on the outside and a square on the inside, nothing complicated.

But just like this, it looked too monotonous, Zhou Xu thought for a while, and drew the front and back of this copper coin.

On the front is written 'One Wen', while on the back is written 'Black Moon Casting'.

Judging from this meaning, we can know that Zhou Xu plans to launch "five wen" and "ten wen" coins in the future.

Although the members of their tribe are illiterate now, thanks to the popularity of coronagraphs, they still know numbers. As long as they know numbers, there is no big problem.

This design is very simple to draw, but the trouble is that with the introduction of the commercial system, he needs to formulate reasonable trade rules.

Before he had a headache, he first called the best pattern maker in the tribe.

This can be regarded as a new occupation within their tribe, specializing in making various molds.

The mold of this copper coin is undoubtedly going to be handed over to him for making.

The mold itself is actually not difficult, but considering that there may be counterfeit coins in the future, Zhou Xu hopes that the mold will be as fine as possible to increase the difficulty of counterfeiting.

Zhou Xu's serious attitude made the model maker tense up.

"Don't worry, leader, I will definitely make this mold!"

"Well, don't worry, the more detailed the better! Go!"

After seeing off the model maker, Zhou Xu's gaze was once again placed on the animal skin paper in front of him.

What is written on it is the trade rules he made.

Before the pattern maker came, he had already written five or six pieces here and there.

It is impossible to make the rules extremely perfect and detailed in one go.

You know, even in the modern society before he traveled, some of their rules and regulations could not be said to be perfect. Now he can only formulate the core rules first, and then slowly improve them in the later stage.

Of course, the currency hasn't been minted yet, so he doesn't need to worry.

Take the animal skin roll with you, and take it out when you think of it later, and remember it. When you have no thoughts, you can do other things.

On this day, the final treatment of the rattan has been done, there is nothing to say, the production of the rattan armor has officially started!

Influenced by Zhou Xu, the handicraft team members of their tribe are all very good at weaving things.

Although it was the first time for them to make rattan armor, the weaving techniques were still the same. There were many things to weave, and they were proficient in various techniques.

"Mengdie, I will leave this matter to you."

"Guaranteed to complete the task."

As early as when their leader asked her to do the final processing on the rattan, Zhuang Mengdie, who had already got the design drawing, had already started to think about the weaving method of the rattan armor.

Now that I already have ideas in my mind, the next thing is to practice and try which weaving method is better.

During this process, Zhou Xu had no interest in getting involved.

Even though he had just traveled through time, the skill of weaving things was his specialty for survival.

But as I said before, there are only a few types of weaving techniques, and he has already taught them all, and it all depends on their mastery and flexible use.

Under this premise, Zhuang Mengdie, as the head of the equipment department, was different from Zhou Xu who was busy with various things, and she devoted all her attention to the study of this craft.

Now in the process of making the rattan armor, she has clearly shown what it means to be blue out of blue and better than blue.

After a while, a very delicately woven armguard appeared in Zhuang Mengdie's hands.

But she didn't stop there, but changed several other changes, and also made arm guards one by one, and compared them, and found out which method was better, and sent the final product to the In front of Zhou Xu.

Holding the armguard, after seeing the design of the joint, a look of amazement flashed in his eyes.

"Mengdie can really bring me many surprises."

The arm guard must not be directly made into a sealed cylinder, and then put the gloves in. Unless there is an elastic band in this design, the arm guard will definitely be loose when worn.

In order to avoid this, the design he gave is to add a strap, and after covering the arm guard on the arm, use the strap to fasten it.

But what Zhou Xu didn't expect was that Zhuang Mengdie added a new design based on his strap design.

Among the rattans, as long as weaving them slightly open, there will be holes. Taking advantage of this feature, Zhuang Mengdie weaves one side relatively sparsely, leaving several rows of holes, while the other side is full of holes. It's a row of little hooks.

Zhou Xu wrapped his arm with the armguard, and then buckled the sides of the rattan armguard inward.

This way, the hook on one side snaps into the hole on the other, keeping it securely attached to your arm even without the straps.

Under this premise, if you feel that the arm guard is too big, you can hook it a row further in. The further you hook it, the tighter the arm guard will be.

In other words, this armguard has an excellent fault tolerance rate, and people with thicker or thinner arms can wear it firmly!

After Zhuang Mengdie made this design, Zhou Xu could see the key point at a glance, but he himself hadn't thought of it before, only thinking about the straps.

And Zhuang Mengdie could think that this was her skill.

This little ingenuity undoubtedly made the armguard stronger.

After getting Zhou Xu's affirmation, Zhuang Mengdie's follow-up rattan armor parts were quickly prepared and sent over.

At this moment, Zhou Xu couldn't wait to test the strength of the rattan armor.

Just at this point in time, the first saber that the forging department tried to forge has been forged and polished, so let's use this saber to test it!

Although Zhou Xu is still very confident in the strength of the rattan armor, it is somewhat risky to have someone wear the rattan armor directly to test the defense strength, so he finally chose to use a wooden stake instead of a person to wear the rattan armor.

You only need to put breastplates on the stakes. Basically, the defense strength of each part is the same. Even if there is a gap, it is very small.

The sword came out of the body, and the blade exuded an icy light in the sun. Zhou Xu personally tested it with his hands.

Without hesitation, he clenched his saber tightly and stepped out with a stride. With a muffled 'hu', he slashed without holding back, directly on the rattan armor.

At that moment, through the blade, he clearly felt the hindrance from the rattan armor.

After one cut, the blade was not damaged. Zhou Xu quickly stepped forward to confirm the condition of the rattan armor.

There was an obvious cut mark left on the place he cut with the saber. The cut mark should be one to two millimeters deep, and this depth is far from being able to damage the rattan armor.

From the perspective of Zhou Xu, a modern person, although the sharpness of their war knives is still very limited, they are copper tools anyway, and their power has far surpassed stone tools and bone tools.

It can have such an effect on a copper weapon with an upward blade. The defensive power of this rattan armor is beyond doubt!
